A blind boy sat on the steps of a building with a hat by his feet. He held up a sign which said: 'I am blind, please help.' There were only a few coins in the hat.
A man was walking by. He took a few coins from his pocket and dropped them into the hat. He then took the sign, turned it around, and wrote some words. He put the sign back so that everyone who walked by would see the new words.
Soon the hat began to fill up. A lot more people were giving money to the blind boy. That afternoon the man who had changed the sign came to see how things were. The boy recognized his footsteps and asked, 'Were you the one who changed my sign this morning? What did you write?'
The man said, 'I only wrote the truth. I said what you said but in a different way.' What he had written was: 'Today is a beautiful day and I cannot see it.'
Do you think the first sign and the second sign were saying the same thing?
Of course both signs told people the boy was blind. But the first sign simply said the boy was blind. The second sign told people they were so lucky that they were not blind. Should we be surprised that the second sign was more effective?
Moral of the Story: Be thankful for what you have. Be creative. Be innovative. Think differently and positively.
Invite others towards good with wisdom. Live life with no excuse and love with no regrets. When life gives you a 100 reasons to cry, show life that you have 1000 reasons to smile. Face your past without regret. Handle your present with confidence. Prepare for the future without fear. Keep the faith and drop the fear.
Great men say, 'Life has to be an incessant process of repair and reconstruction, of discarding evil and developing goodness... In the journey of life, if you want to travel without fear, you must have the ticket of a good conscience.'
The most beautiful thing is to see a person smiling...And even more beautiful is, knowing that you are the reason behind it!!!

Bro Mirul,
Waalaikumussalam..
1 tu takde kias2 juz straigt,ayat ke-2 tu berbunga2 tp maksud yg sama..org lagi tertarik tang ayat berkias2,sodap lidah membaca..
pandangan org tang ape yg dinampak dan dirsa berlainan setiap individu..
:P
wow.. anjakan paradigma telah berlaku terhadap penderma kpd budak buta tu. sebaris ayat dapat meraih simpati semua org..
sebab itu kata2 kiasan boleh jadi madah yg berbisa walau tgh marah,sedih,ketawa..
dgn satu patah perkataan boleh membuat org dengki,gelak dsb..
yg penting jaga ati org yg mendengar...
:p
pandainyer... patut la skrg dah pandai berkias2 dan bermadah2.. hehehe..
ko yg ajao..mmg ler..
aiyooo.. :)

ok lor,aku buat hang pon dapat,bila ko buat ko sendiri yg dapat,aku nothing..aiyoo..manyak baguss wooo..
hehee..
yg baek dijadikan teladan yg jahat dihindari.. :)
